Whoo! this one took a while to blend… and insanely long to render… but i perservered and even did PP on it 
Any C&C are welcome.

Magnifesante. i like it alot surprised you dont got more replies. Also i think the branches are a wee bit too big. Other then that…nice.
I love the colors.

block01cube: thanks
UltraX: maybe… i think i’ve seen trees with thick brances like that before though
The clouds are superb! The only thing that bothers me is how the branches are so uniform and smooth.
i like it too but i cant figure out why it took so long to render there isn’t much there it would seem! I now raytracing set to 512 and ao set to 16 would take a while but still i don’t see reflections or refractions and the mist looks like paintshop so i just can’t figure out why it took so long! ANyway love the artwork! It is really great!
Thanks!
btw: all the post processing was done in gimp and the mist is blender :).

VERY nice render BlackMage. As said before, the colors look great.

Very nice work. Looks almost post nuclear.
Excellent mood.

RobertT & Sonix: Thanks!
Not bad. I like this one because it leaves a bit to the imaginationation instead of saying ‘this is a picture of a tree. Nothing else.’ You can make up a story to go along with this peice as you look at it. It was well executed.
The modeling seems a bit elementary but I dont think it takes very much away from the peice as a whole.
Nice work
This is a great peice 
I love the mood. The tree looks a little…unstable I guess…With sucha small trunk with all thoughs large branches it looks like it would snap. I think it would be awesome if the tree got larger at the bottom and had alot of vines and roots…detail…lol. I think the branches are a little to, uniform, and they end so suddenly, the branches stay one size, they don’t work like a cone…if you get what im trying to say? Everything else looks great
I’m going to go back and add more detail to things…
I updated it!
as I lready told you - it very nice! I’like the “deserted” mood
Awesome!
This would go well as a background

@ner: thanks
Mystery00: Hey… that gives me an idea!!! i’ll render a 1280x1024 while sleeping
That’s really nice - as mentioned before, the colours are great - and this yellow glow - cool.
